It’s been a long and difficult year for Bruce Willis and his loved ones. The world-famous actor has taken a step back from the spotlight following his frontotemporal diagnosis, and though updates from his family are regular and fairly candid, there’s a lot fans aren’t privy to.
Bruce’s wife, Emma Heming Willis, recently confirmed that “it’s hard to know” if the Die Hard star is aware that he has dementia. If reports are to be believed, Bruce’s loved ones have rallied around him in the months following his diagnosis, while his wife, Emma, has assumed the role of his carer.
Yet though the outlook remains bleak – Emma herself stated earlier this week that there is no cure for Bruce’s condition – the actor himself remains upbeat and positive, according to his daughter, Tallulah.
It’s perhaps not so strange that fans are now seeing less and less of Bruce Willis following his diagnosis.
The iconic Hollywood star retired from the spotlight last year after revealing that he was battling aphasia, a condition that left him confused and made it difficult for him to remember lines.
Fans praying for a turn of good fortune were then left bitterly disappointed in early 2023, when Willis’s family confirmed that he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.
